Is GMK you don't like worth hanging on to?
« on: Sat, 12 September 2015, 23:12:51 »
I'm toying with selling some of the GMK I don't like, and I was wondering what the c.w. is on selling it now vs. selling it later?

If you don't like it, why hang on to it? If it because you think it might exponentially grow in worth, I'd say that is unlikely. Unlikely and probably not the best motivation. Wouldn't someone else who actually wants it getting it for a fair price be better all around?

Most of the transactions that happen at the classifieds are non for profit; but, instead, to let the stuff someone does not need to go to a better home. Thus, if you don't like, or need what you have, just let others take better care of it, cover your original cost is fair, but push beyond it normally ends in no sale at all, as most GH's fellows are knowledgeable about keyboard stuff actual value. Some items are scarce though, but those are special cases, like clacks, or Special Edition sets; but for these, the community has an appreciation of the collector's status and its associated value.

Bruh, don't you know, GH only exists to make profit off of key cap sets and artisans.

Time to bring back the ML G84-XXXX series.

To sell, or not to sell, that is the dilemma.

I just sold a RGBY set. It was a very nice set that had a lot of compatibility but I hardly use it and I needed the money.
Better to sell it and move on. Same with Ivan's GMK Dolch.

GMK is great but if you don't like it or don't use it then allow other people to experience it.

I realized latelt that I mostly enjoy receiving them and making pictures. But after that, if I don't use it, I often get rid of them.
Especially if it's a color scheme that I don't particularly like/care for.

Ugh.  I'm gonna have to go to the post office  :(

Ugh. The bane of my existence, is how I read this.

It's worth it for all of these awesome people here. I'm now a "regular" apparently at my branch, but mostly not because I just ship a lot of stuff but because of lost or mishandled packages (being sent to me)  :(

Better sell right now before Uniqey changes keycap dynamics forever

They claim double-shot customisability (I don't know how they can possibly pull it off, but this is the claim)
